JS_GetArrayPrototype(JSContext *cx, JS::HandleObject forObj);
Name Type Description
cx JSContext * Pointer to a JavaScript context from which to derive runtime information. Requires request. In a JS_THREADSAFE build, the caller must be in a request on this JSContext.

Description

JS_GetArrayPrototype() retrieves the original Array.prototype of a specified object, obj. If an error occurs, it returns NULL.
